Wing Chun Illustrated Magazine No.16 : Personal Protection Concept, Learning to Fight without Fighting (Part 1)

"Personal Protection is not about sport, but a serious approach to preparing oneself for any potential real life threats. To quote an ancient Chinese sage, Li Chuan: 'War is a grave matter. One is apprehensive lest men embark on it without due reflection.' A skilful fighter is one who is able to triumph over his or her opponent by having a deep understanding of their own unique capabilities and potential. Therefore, proper training is essential—training that fully prepares you not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well."
-- Spread of Sifu David Peterson's article (co-written with Rolf Clausnitzer and Andrew Williams) from the upcoming Issue No. 16. New issue on sale February 21.
